CVE-2026-10118
HighCVSS 7.8Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk17th percentile - higher than 17% of all known CVEs
Summary
Integer overflow in Poppler's Splash backend tilingPatternFill function leads to undersized heap allocation and out-of-bounds write. Remote code execution, information disclosure, or denial of service possible.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can remotely execute arbitrary code, disclose information, or cause denial of service in PDF-processing applications.
Recommendation
Update Poppler to a version with a fix for tilingPatternFill.
Other vulnerabilities in Poppler
See all- CVE-2017-15565High
In Poppler 0.59.0, a NULL Pointer Dereference exists in the GfxImageColorMap::getGrayLine() function in GfxState.cc via a crafted PDF document.
- CVE-2017-14977High
The FoFiTrueType::getCFFBlock function in Poppler 0.59.0 has a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability due to lack of validation of a table pointer, which allows an attacker to launch a denial of service attack.
- CVE-2017-14976High
The FoFiType1C::convertToType0 function in Poppler 0.59.0 has a heap-based buffer over-read vulnerability when encountering an out-of-bounds font dictionary index. This can be exploited by an attacker to launch a denial of service attack.
- CVE-2017-14975High
The FoFiType1C::convertToType0 function in Poppler 0.59.0 has a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability because a data structure is not initialized, allowing an attacker to launch a denial of service attack.
- CVE-2017-14929High
In Poppler 0.59.0, memory corruption occurs in a call to Object::dictLookup() in Object.h after a repeating series of Gfx::display, Gfx::go, Gfx::execOp, Gfx::opFill, Gfx::doPatternFill, Gfx::doTilingPatternFill, and Gfx::drawForm calls. This is a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-14519.
- CVE-2017-14617High
In Poppler 0.59.0, a floating point exception occurs in the ImageStream class in Stream.cc, which may lead to a potential attack when handling malicious PDF files.
- CVE-2017-14520High
In Poppler 0.59.0, a floating point exception occurs in Splash::scaleImageYuXd() in Splash.cc, which may lead to a potential attack when handling malicious PDF files.
- CVE-2017-14519High
In Poppler 0.59.0, memory corruption occurs in a call to Object::streamGetChar in Object.h after a repeating series of Gfx::display, Gfx::go, Gfx::execOp, Gfx::opShowText, and Gfx::doShowText calls (aka a Gfx.cc infinite loop).
- CVE-2017-14518High
In Poppler 0.59.0, a floating point exception exists in the isImageInterpolationRequired() function in Splash.cc via a crafted PDF document.
- CVE-2017-2820High
An exploitable integer overflow vulnerability exists in the JPEG 2000 image parsing functionality of Poppler 0.53.0. Opening a specially crafted PDF file can lead to an overflow, resulting in out of bounds memory overwrite on the heap and potential arbitrary code execution.
Original NVD description (English source)
A flaw was found in Poppler's Splash backend. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious PDF file that, when rendered, triggers an integer overflow in the `tilingPatternFill` function. This overflow leads to an undersized heap memory allocation, allowing a subsequent out-of-bounds write. Successful exploitation could result in arbitrary code execution, information disclosure, or denial of service within the context of the application processing the PDF.
